Post No. 807 The following is brought to you by Intellivest Securities Research, Inc. Toward the end of this Blog is a list of the Dow 30 current CEOs, a ranking of the Dow 30 components by market capitalization as of Dec. 7, 2010 and Dow 30 component's SEC filings as of Dec. 11, 2010.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed Monday at 11,670.75 up 93.24 points or 0.81% from Friday's close of 11,577.51. Of the 30 Dow Jones component companies 25 gained, Merck was changed and 4 declined. The biggest gainer dollar-wise was Exxon XOM $74.55 +1.43 1.96% 23,298,920 NYSE and percentage-wise was Bank of America BAC $14.19 +0.85 6.37% 352,223,642 NYSE. The biggest decliner dollar-wise was Coke KO $65.22 -0.55 0.84% 9,458,654 NYSE and percentage-wise was Intel INTC $20.85 -0.18 0.86% 57,843,154 NASDAQ-GS.

As of the open of the market Friday, the current divisor for the Dow Jones Industrial Average found at page C4 of Friday's Wall St. Journal is 0.132129493. The trailing P/E is 14.75 down from Thursday's 14.77 (year ago it was 18.09); the P/E estimate is 13.54 unchanged from Thursday's 13.54 (year ago it was 16.40), and the dividend yield is 2.48 unchanged from Thursday's 2.48 (last year it was 2.64). The Dow's all-time high was 14,164.53 on Oct. 9, 2007. The 12 year low close for the Dow was on March 9, 2009 when it fell to 6,547.05.

Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average closing numerator was 1,542.05 up 12.32 from Friday's closing numerator of 1,529.73. This is the sum of all 30 closing prices. A short cut to the Dow numerator is to multiply the closing Dow by the Divisor. Now, if you divide the Dow numerator increase for today by the divisor (0.132129493) you get the increase in today's Dow. A $1 change in the price of any DJIA stock = a 7.57 change in the average.

The average closing price (the closing numerator divided by 30) of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $51.40 up $0.41 from Friday's Dow Jones Industrial Average average closing price of $50.99. The median closing price of Monday's Dow Jones Industrial Average was $43.07 (AXP/HPQ up $0.60 from Friday's median closing price of $42.47. The lowest volume was 3M MMM $86.79 +0.49 0.57% 2,621,994 NYSE and the highest volume was again Bank of America BAC $14.19 +0.85 6.37% 352,223,642 NYSE.

If Monday morning before the market opened you had purchased 100 shares of each of the Dow Jones Industrial Average 30 shares (assuming you could buy fractional shares and assuming no transaction costs) and sold at the close you would have nade $1,232 ($154,205 - $152,973 - $).

MarketWatch Monday 1/3/11 4:31 by Kate Gibson says U.S. stocks rallied on the first trading session of the year Monday, with major averages climbing to two-year highs as reports on manufacturing and construction fueled hopes for the economy. “The optimism at the end of 2010 continues into 2011. Investors, including me, hope that 2011 will be a better year for earnings, confidence, housing and jobs,” Kevin Giddis, an executive managing director of fixed-income capital markets at Morgan Keegan, wrote in a research note. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA 11,671, +93.24, +0.81%) gained 93.24 points, or 0.8%, to 11,670.75, marking its highest close since August 2008 and its biggest jump since early December. Blue-chip gains were led by a 6.4% jump in shares of Bank of America Corp. (BAC 14.19, +0.85, +6.37%). Mark Hulbert says the outlook for the market in 2011 is positive, in part because it is the third year of a presidential election cycle, a year that has historically produced strong returns. The nation’s largest bank on Monday said it would resolve disputes with Freddie Mac (FMCC 0.33, +0.02, +6.63%) and Fannie Mae (FNMA 0.33, +0.03, +10.00%) by paying more than $2.6 billion to settle claims it sold loans based on faulty information. Extending a climb of 13% in 2010, the S&P 500 Index fell (SPX 1,272, +14.25, +1.13%) 14.23 points, or 1.1%, to 1,271.87, led by a 2.3% jump in the financial sector.On the New York Mercantile Exchange, crude-oil futures (CLG11 91.53, +0.15, +0.16%) topped $91 a barrel.
Pointing to bullish projections that crude could rise to $120 a barrel this year, one market strategist said that one factor in the commodity’s favor is “the relative absence of speculation” this time around.If historical relationships hold, $120 crude would equate to $3.60 a gallon at the pump, said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Harris Private Bank.And, “since the gain in crude is more likely fueled by end-user demand rather than investor speculation, the bullish trend should continue,” Ablin added.Treasury prices fell, pushing yields on the benchmark 10-year note (UST10Y 3.33, +0.05, +1.37%) up to 3.335%. Mortgage rates and other consumer borrowing costs are heavily influenced by the 10-year note yield.
The Institute for Supply Management’s manufacturing index in December climbed to 57% from 56.6% in November, signaling expansion. Separately, the Commerce Department reported that construction spending climbed for a third straight month in November, up 0.4%.“Money flows out of domestically-oriented equity mutual funds for eight months up until last week certainly does not argue that investors love stocks excessively as they did back in 2000,” Tobias Levkovich, an analyst at Citigroup, noted.
